Hi,1. I would like to be able to colour a partlist (L&L) cell background depending on the cell value. For example, for special bolts in my field bolt list, I would like to highlight that entry with a different background colour.
OR.....
2. A while ago I remember seeing another post regarding L&L background colours, there was an example that had every second line of the report was a contrast colour, please see example below. How is this possible with L&L?
Thanks.
Try this:
Create a function to test for your condition. Go to the data line field you want to control. Click on the Background property & set it to formula, insert your test here. Then click on the color property & set to your desired color when the formula test is true. This worked for me...this test for rolled members...

Glad to hear its working for you. I was going to reply that you actually didn't need to create a function in this case as you can simply write the formula directly into the field. Functions are defined under the projects tab. I have several defined that I link together into a logic tree.
